Today, Dave W and I spent close to six hours at the roundhouse removing the remaining pit covers, steel work platforms and the bridge rails for stall 28 from the large wheel drop pit. The pit now looks as it does in the attached photograph looking north from the stall 27 end. At the stall 29 end, and beneath the west end of the service pit we found a large drainage tunnel. This is one of four originally installed as extensions of stalls 7, 20, 24 and 29. They each run to a sump just outside the perimeter wall. The stall 24 tunnel runs to a sump but it is below the machine shop floor slab. The bridge rails, pit jack rails and ladders will be salvaged for use in the museum.
